She stole a glance at Fu Jingyuan, whose expressionless face was filled with conflict, and then muttered to herself, "Why is it impossible..."

Hearing her mutterings, Fu Jingyuan sighed and asked, "Why do you want me to forgive you?"

Ye Zhuxi rubbed her wrist, which was sore from being pinched, and spoke weakly, not daring to look at him.

"Because...because we...are a loving family..."

"Hmph~~"

Upon hearing Ye Zhuxi's words, Fu Jingyuan couldn't help but laugh. He was glad he had restrained himself from slapping her to death.

Hearing Fu Jingyuan's light chuckle, Ye Zhuxi shrank back in fright, but then she thought to herself, "I am now the eldest daughter of the Ye family. When have I ever been so humiliated?"

With that thought in mind, Ye Zhuxi straightened up, put her hands on her hips, and looked righteous and awe-inspiring.

Believe it or not, this is how I think!

Fu Jingyuan pursed his lips, his aura still very cold, and lazily glanced at the indignant Ye Zhuxi, showing little interest in what she was saying.

Ye Zhuxi puffed out her cheeks, knowing that she wouldn't easily gain Fu Jingyuan's forgiveness anytime soon. Her almond-shaped eyes were full of frustration as she stood up dejectedly and uttered a few words.

"Get some rest, I'll come see you again next time!"

As she spoke, she walked towards the door, but after only a couple of steps, she felt a wave of dizziness. She swayed and turned back, wanting to ask Fu Jingyuan to help her, but when she turned around, she saw Fu Jingyuan staring at her expressionlessly.

Only now did she realize that Fu Jingyuan had tried to strangle her yesterday. Now that he was full and satisfied, she felt like a rusty knife that had been sharpened and handed over to the person who wanted to kill her!

"Big……"

Ye Zhuxi could no longer hold on, and her vision went black as she fainted...

When she opened her eyes again, Ye Zhuxi was back in her room.

She sat up abruptly, reached out to touch her head to see if it was still on her neck, and then lifted the blanket to check if any part of her body was missing...

He Ye brought in the medicine and saw that Ye Zhuxi looked terrified. She put the medicine down and went over to her.

"Miss, what are you looking for?"

Seeing that she was unharmed, Ye Zhuxi breathed a sigh of relief. Recalling Fu Jingyuan's indifferent expression when she fainted, she couldn't help but ask He Ye, "How is Fu Jingyuan?"

Speaking of Fu Jingyuan, He Ye was furious.

"Don't worry, Miss! Madam has already punished Fu Jingyuan by making him kneel outside after he caused you to faint!"

"What!!"

Ye Zhuxi was almost scared to death. She had finally managed to make Fu Jingyuan know that she would not bully him anymore, but now this had happened. He must think that she was playing a trick on him!

Ye Zhuxi hurriedly threw off the quilt and stood up, wanting to go outside, but luckily He Ye stopped her.

"Miss, you're not fully recovered yet. The doctor said you shouldn't run around!"

Ye Zhuxi broke free from He Ye's hand, her chest heaving with anger.

"This isn't Fu Jingyuan's problem; it's just that my body is too weak!"

Lotus Leaf clung to her like an octopus, saying, "No matter what, Miss, please drink your medicine before going out. It's freezing cold outside!"

Hearing this, Ye Zhuxi felt helpless. She then picked up the medicine on the table and smelled it. Just smelling it made her feel bitter, but she still gritted her teeth and swallowed the whole bowl of medicine in one gulp.

Lotus Leaf stared in disbelief. When did Miss become so obedient when taking medicine?

After finishing her drink, Ye Zhuxi put on the Fox Hill cloak. Remembering Fu Jingyuan's thin frame, she grabbed another cloak and turned to walk outside.

Outside, heavy snow began to fall, and in just a short while, Fu Jingyuan was almost covered in snow.

As Ye Zhuxi walked out, she saw Fu Jingyuan kneeling in the snow with his head down. She quickly ran over and brushed the snow off him.

Seeing that he didn't move at all, she reached out and waved her hand: "Fu Jingyuan..."

With just a touch, Fu Jingyuan fell backward, but fortunately Ye Zhuxi caught him in time. A voice in her heart reminded her that she couldn't let Fu Jingyuan die like this; the Ye family still needed to cling to this big boss in the future!

Ye Zhuxi draped the cloak over Fu Jingyuan, then called He Ye over, and the two of them together helped Fu Jingyuan into the house.

Seeing that Fu Jingyuan was unconscious but still able to lie on her young mistress's bed, He Ye pouted and said, "Miss, you should help Fu Jingyuan into the room. Madam will be angry if she sees him when she comes over."

Ye Zhuxi wiped Fu Jingyuan's face with hot water, then looked up at He Ye, who looked disgusted, and pursed her lips.

"Take care of Fu Jingyuan first, I'll talk to Mother later."

Fu Jingyuan was quite cold; his face was deathly pale, his lips were purple, and a thin layer of ice had formed on his eyebrows.

"Lotus Leaf, go prepare two bowls of ginger soup, and bring several more braziers. Also, ask the others to bring over basins of hot water!"

He Ye gave an "oh" and reluctantly went out.

Fu Jingyuan remained unconscious, and even when ginger soup was brought to him, he could not be fed it.

Seeing the ginger soup that had been fed to him flow out of his mouth again, Ye Zhuxi gritted her teeth and decided to feed him herself.

She tilted her head back, took a sip, and then fed it to Fu Jingyuan's lips.

Perhaps sensing the heat, Fu Jingyuan's throat moved, and he swallowed the ginger soup little by little.

Seeing that this method was effective, Ye Zhuxi fed him two large bowls of ginger soup, one spoonful after another...

When He Ye returned with the brazier and saw this scene, her eyes nearly popped out of their sockets in shock.

But what shocked her even more was that Ye Zhuxi touched Fu Jingyuan's hand, which hadn't warmed up at all. She took it in her own hand and rubbed it repeatedly, breathing on it to warm it up...

With the addition of several braziers, the room gradually warmed up. Ye Zhuxi felt a stuffy heat on her body. She took off her cloak and glanced at Fu Jingyuan, who was still unconscious. Instantly, an idea came to her mind.

He Ye watched as her young mistress took off her cloak, then climbed onto the bed and pulled Fu Jingyuan into her arms, warming him with her own body heat...

"Miss, this is not appropriate!"

Before He Ye could stop her, Ye Zhuxi had already swiftly and decisively slipped into the quilt and hugged Fu Jingyuan.

Turning around, she saw He Ye staring in disbelief. She gave her a reassuring, bright smile and said, "It's okay, no one will know if we don't tell anyone!"

Lotus Leaf was so frightened that she swallowed hard, managing to suppress her shock.

This method worked, and in a short while, Fu Jingyuan's body began to gradually warm up.

Feeling the warmth, Fu Jingyuan slowly opened his eyes. He was in an unfamiliar room. It was warm and the decorations were luxurious; it was clearly a woman's room...

He shifted his body and felt someone lying next to him. He turned around and saw Ye Zhuxi's delicate and pretty face close to his. Her breath gently brushed against his neck, and her soft hands were tightly clasped around his…
